Default AUTOFILL DATA

You could create a lookup table with truck numbers column and corresponding data
columns.

Then a VLOOKUP formula in each cell to be filled.

See Debra Dalgleish's site for more on VLOOKUP and Data
Validation lists for entering the choices.

Note the section on using DV lists from another worksheet by naming the list.

I am using dropdown lists to fill in data on a worksheet. I would like to
have the date autofill when a selection is made from the 1st dropdown list.
I have a list of truck numbers. When I select a particular truck number I
want the VIN number, Make, Model etc. to automatically be inserted in the
appropiate cell. How do I link the cells or create a formula to recognize
the data and insert the corelating data?
